I'm actually not very pizza. ST Poll: Alfredo sauce on a pizza, yeah or nay?? I may be hunger biased. It comes on a spinach and feta specialty pie - con_carne Jul 18, 16:45 22
- I'd eat that combo. There's a few others, depends on the ingredients. Goes well with chicken too. -- nm - . Jul 18, 18:46 1
  - One of my favorites in college was shrimp pizza with an alfredoish sauce. - . Jul 18, 18:50

        I hear things are much better there for pizza these days. Like legit good pizzerias -- nm - Krusty Jul 18, 19:11

    - oh Meg, lol. it doesn't actually look like a bat. -- nm - loosilu Jul 18, 16:22 1
      - ok. SO, the thing about bats is that they have to be able to hook their feet into a crack. They do not stand upright. They don't lie down or sit. They hang, and they need something to grip. -- nm* - loosilu Jul 18, 16:33
    - Hmm, and I didn't get a duplicate link warning. -- nm - Meg Jul 18, 16:18 3
